Public bug reported:

I'm reporting this as a bug.  Usually, I use the terminal to install.
On dome deb packages, I get a message 'unknown ..etc. cannot install.'
I find that very annoying. I have to use the software center, which
fails to install (presumably because of unmet dependencies).  But what
they are is a mystery.  I really would like the terminal to be a lot
less picky.  Could one of you make a note of that please.  If I install
something that does damage, I should have to take full responsibility,
but in a Linux system, I don't want to be mothered!  Thanks.  Barry.
